Moxa support just emailed their latest code to support 3.8.x kernels so will compile and send to you to try

[coreplayer2]

ok with a little fiddling i built the Moxa  driver for 3.8.13 and 3.0.21 kernels

Code: [Select]

tc@box:~/mxser$ make
**********************************************************************
  3.8.13-tinycore
 MOXA Smartio/Industio Family Multiport Board Device Driver ver 1.15.27
 Release Date: 2013/09/30
**********************************************************************
tc@box:~/mxser$

and loaded it
dmesg

Code: [Select]

[ 1126.497545] MOXA Smartio/Industio family driver version 1.15.27should be good to go

sent malikawan the driver to try

[malikawan]

Thanx coreplayer2 i download driver which u send to me and its working 100% with tiny core 4.7.7 and kernel version 3.0.21.
thanx again.

Summary :-
I copied the driver which coreplayer2 send to me.
i convert these file to .gz format and copy these files in /lib/modules/3.0.21-tinycore/kernel/drivers/misce and then open terminal
then open a terminal and enter:
  sudo depmod -a

then load the modules:
  sudo modprobe mxser.ko
  sudo modprobe mxupcie.ko

check dmesg for errors
check also lsmod to see if loaded

sir just tell me when i enable moxa support from kernel config after that which step use for building a new kernel and module because when i enable moxa support then save config file after this i give command make bzimage then i give command make then mxser.o and moxa.o files create in drivers/tty after this i m confusing how i create mxser.ko file plz tell me the step after make command.

As mentioned in the link a couple of posts back:

Code: [Select]

$ make bzImage
$ make modules

[malikawan]

As mentioned in the link a couple of posts back:

Code: [Select]

$ make bzImage
$ make modules

but when i give command it will start to making all modules but i have enable only moxa support ?

[Juanito]

no, in loading config-3.8.13-tinycore, you've enabled a whole bunch of modules.

Once things have finished you only need to save the moxa modules, the others are already available in the various tinycore module extensions.

[malikawan]

"Once things have finished you only need to save the moxa modules,"
ok once finish then how i get only moxa module or its auto intall on my tiny core?

[Juanito]

You first do some research on where to put the moxa modules (to check where debian puts them would be a good place to start) - it should be somewhere analogous to /usr/local/lib/modules/3.8.10-tinycore/kernel/drivers/tty or similar.

Then you use gzip and advcomp to compress the moxa modules, copy them to the filesystem and make an extension of them - most, if not all, of this is explained in the wiki and I posted a link to how it was done for the wl module extension a few posts back.

sir coreplayer2 have created driver for me and i have installed alredy but i just want to know when make modules finish how i create .ko

i want to create my self if next time i need i know how to install or configure it just tel me the step plzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

[gerald_clark]

You have been told, several times.

I suspect there might be some confusion between

1. The official in-tree (tristate) driver, which as far as I understand would require recompiling the kernel with different options (boolean dependencies)
2. An out-of-tree driver which coreplayer2 aquired from vendor
